Short title - Definition. 1  Unlike the long title, which precedes the preamble and enacting formula, and thus sits outside the main body of text, the short title for modern legislation is explicitly defined by a specific section, typically at the very end or very beginning of the main text.
We have Pulse-Output Water Meters that have a pulse output that can be read remotely. For each unit of water that flows by the meter produces an electrical pulse that can be measured from a distance. The total water use can always be read on the face of the meter as well - as a standalone device.
Water meters are read once every four hours by an Automated Meter Reading device and bills are generated once every three months for most customers. Larger residential properties may be enrolled in the Multi-family Conservation Program (MCP).
